With blue skies and calm winds, we successfully made it out of Greenland and landed in Reykjavik, Iceland around 8pm local time. I am geographically further, yet mentally (and logistically) closer to home.

Quick Trip to a Volcano. Then....Greenland

It was the perfect day to visit a volcano.

    About me:

    In fall of 2021, I led an experiential eLearning project connecting US students (and public) with the people, places, and industries of Greenland. With funding from university partnerships and the US Consulate to Greenland, I redesigned a research trip into a virtual field trip for my students who didn't have any Study Abroad options. The videos, photos, interviews, and storytelling remain here to enjoy!
